It’s our honor to bring the work of Seoul-based designer Kwangho Lee to San Diego for Current — which happens to occur simultaneously with his exhibition at Hunting and Collecting in Brussels. They’ve posted a fantastic micro-documentary about his creative process. Check it out and see the artist in person as he describes his vision to transform the ordinary into something beautiful. Black Whale — his 7 foot knitted lighting installation just in from Seoul — is just that: eerie and enchanting at the same time. We hope you’ll join us to toast its arrival September 1-5th! Event details & RSVP here.
UPDATE 01/14/2011: Here’s a video Converse did about Kwangho.

A pop up shop in the studio will also showcase limited edition furniture pieces, prints, and objects by designers including Miki Iwasaki (mi-workshop) and Josh Higgins.

Much gratitude to Sezio for the review and insightful documentation of this month’s Liquidation Sale hosted by Set & Drift here at The Bakery!
Pop Zen and a Fort with The Vision at The Bakery in Barrio. Fear not, folks, this isn’t 2012. What may sound like an apocalyptic nursery tale was in fact Set & Drift’s latest collaborative event, presenting the work of Keikichi Honna and Wes Bruce, and including a performance by The Vision of a Dying World, hosted at The Bakery on April 3. This event marked The Bakery’s gallery debut… <more>
Update: Friday, April 23rd (that’s today, folks!) we’re opening up The Bakery to Wes Bruce to show the fort one last time before it’s dismantled. Drop by and get a tour with the artist himself.
